Although it was an epic journey, their goal was to see just how small the world really is by finding connections with the people they met along the way.</p>

JOHN BUONINCONTRO, ABOVE, is pretty excited about the 7-point rack on this 183-pound buck he shot in Huntington and had weighed at Lincoln General Store.

Looks like she thinks it was worth the wait. Buxton&#039;s Store recorded it at 190 pounds and 8 points. Below right, ten-year-old Carter Audet had this 176-pound, 6-point buck weighed at Buxton&#039;s Store in Orwell. He shot it during opening weekend.

ADDISON COUNTY &mdash; Area deer hunters enjoyed the second-best rifle deer season since 2005, bringing 554 bucks to Addison County weigh stations during the 16-day season that ran Nov. 11 to 26.</p>
<p>
That total of deer taken came just 19 short of 2016&rsquo;s total of 573, the highest since Vermont wildlife officials in 2005 banned the taking of spikehorn bucks during November&rsquo;s rifle season, the most popular of the state&rsquo;s deer hunting seasons.</p>
